MotoE possibly cancelled

I wonder how toxic the fire was seeing as they're battery bikes.
 
Myth Busters did a segment about lithium batteries catching fire in dump trucks. Just the pressure from trash compaction set the batteries on fire, and if there are a lot of batteries, the conflagration is intense. In addition, putting these fires out can be difficult. A Tesla was left to burn down on a California highway because the Fire Department couldn't stop the battery fire.

I certainly wouldn't like to find out what the black reek tasted like.
One electric vehicle on fire is a very dangerous business. A whole shed of them is as well being left to turn into a car park unfortunately.
 
Well, so before their first-ever race even took place, the eco guys have polluted more than the MotoGP has done in the past 10 years :D
